"If I am not wrong, there are thirteen sons in total in the Asahina family and one daughter." – Toshiro taps his chin, holding the door for the girl who got in, closing it, starting the engine, then rolling down the window.
"Here." – she said, giving him an extra chocolate bag.
"You're giving me one?" – he raised a brow
"You walked me to my car, this is the best I can thank you." – Lucy beamed at him, making him blink a few times then chuckle, letting out a mischievous smirk.
"How about this sunshine (he leaned down towards the window to face Lucy) let's make a deal."
She tilted her head in confusion and wonders, but she loves challenges and so Lucy, for the first time, accepted a challenge without thinking ahead of time.
"Sure, what is it?"
"You have to come to the basketball match one week from now, if my team loses I'll do whatever you wat for the whole day, but if we win you let me take you out on a date." – he smirked getting off the car placing both his hands on his hips looking so smug as he watches her eyes widen from surprise.
"I-I guess I can accept that." – Lucy slightly blushed making him grin at her widely.
"Would you look at the time, I need to go, it was nice meeting you Toshiro-san." – she smiles nervously.
"No need to be polite and formal, Lucy, but take care on your way." – he pecks her right cheek
"O-O-O-Okay." – She quickly waves and drives off, letting the man stare at her departing car that made a turn of his sight letting him walk back to the building energetically as he found the right inspiration to practice and win the game next week.
"She's just way too cute for her good." – he chuckles to himself remembering the blush and her antics earlier, then firing up to work harder in basketball. He needs to win her and the game, so he can have that date.
Lucy parked her car at the front of the hospital near the entrance, she entered the hospital where Masaomi was working. Before she arrived, Lucy grabbed lunch or dinner for Masaomi, knowing that he hadn't eaten yet. Lucy remembers that around this time will be his break time, however, suddenly an image of what happened earlier at the university flashes through her mind, making Lucy blush once again.
'I swear even if they are all just humans, most of them are still extremely attractive...but who knows, I'm not from here. I'd doubt any of them would accept me in the first place...' sighing to herself in remorse, she just keeps walking until she is right in front of the reception desk, being greeted by a middle-aged lady wearing a nurse outfit.
"Welcome to the hospital, dear. How may I help you?" – the lady asks as Lucy tilted her head, smiling at the nurse lady.
"I am here for my close friend Masaomi Asahina, I am hoping to deliver some lunch for him."
"Oh! A friend of that doctor, I'll direct you to his office, he should be there at the moment." – she said. Lucy thanked her in return. They walked to the elevator, taking it to the third floor, walking past other doctors and nurses who smiled and greeted Lucy politely.
"Here you go dear." – she gestured to the door as Lucy pulled out a small bag of chocolate she made.
'Good thing I made a little way too much chocolate last night, it was too much fun so I got lost in the track of myself considering the rest is at the house.' Lucy giggles to herself at thinking about last night while she is making those chocolates before handing them out to the nurse who helps her.
"Please take this as a thank you and Happy Valentine's Day."
"Oh my, how sweet of you! Thank you and you are very welcome." - she waves her goodbye as Lucy did the same. Once she was out of sight Lucy turn back at the door and knock on it three times.
"Come in," – she heard him say as Lucy opened the door happily skipping in.
"Masaomi~" – Lucy sang, closing the doo,r shocking him at her arrival.
"Lucy? What a pleasant surprise, what are you doing here?" – he questions as Lucy looks around his office.
"Thought I'd make a little visit since Ukyo told me you are also staying late tonight." – Lucy beams at him as he gestured to take a seat in front of him, letting Lucy sit down comfortably.
"What is in those bags?" – Masaomi raised a brow pointing at the things on her lap as she pulls out a bag of chocolate handing it to him.
"Happy Valentine's Day!"
"Chocolates for me?" – he questioned as Lucy nodded in response
"Though I'd give them to you now since I was already out, to begin with."
"I see...well...Arigatou." – he smiles gratefully and softly as Lucy blinks a couple of times slightly blushing and fumbling with her fingers nervously.
"N-No problem..."
"I have also made all the preparations for the festival next week, so rest assured we will go on the weekend to watch you perform."
"Anyways, Masaomi, have you eaten yet?"
"I don't normally eat here on breaks."
Lucy's jaw drops before huffing then pulling out a container of food that she cooks earlier and handing out for him to eat while scolding him about eating properly.
"Masaomi, you are a doctor, you need to eat your food, so you won't fall sick or else you won't have any energy. As a doctor, you should know that better than not eating during break time. Are you hungry? Here eat this, all of it."
"I know but I'd rather be going out help the patients there's no need to worry Lucy I am not that hungry." – he smiles but Lucy only huffed in irritation staring at him...no glaring at him. After what seems to be a while a grumbling sound of complaining sounded throughout the room making Masaomi blush as it came from him.
"Masaomi, I know you care about your job, but you also need to take care of yourself before you take care of others, especially when you are a doctor. Food gives you energy and strength to take care of others, so don't skip on it."
"Gomen Lucy." – he said as she lightly chopped his head on the top making him wince a little.
"There's no need to be sorry, this is something I got on the way, do you normally not eat during work?" – she asks as they open their food taking bites.
"No." – he replied eating his food before taking his drinks from the water bottle.
"Eh! From now on, I'll be coming during this and I'll bring you a bento."
"There's no need for that, Lucy." – he waved his hand frantically refusing to agree with Lucy's decision for bringing his bento.
"I can't have you go through the trouble just to bring my bento, I can take care of it, I'll just go to the cafeteria and buy my food."
"Honestly, it's not something that I am forcing myself to do, I like to cook so this is something interesting for me to do. Plus, you don't work on the weekends so it's fine." – she gives him a puppy eye look that was hard to say no to or even deny her. He blushes slightly but sighs in defeat, petting her head.
"Alright then, if this is something you want to do I won't hesitate to stop you. How was your Valentine's Day so far?" – he smiles making her grin wide with her eyes shining in wondrous, however, the blonde girl's face suddenly fell into a sulk putting some food in her mouth quickly swallowing.
"It was tiring, there are two boxes filled with chocolates in my trunk that I got from the students in my school. Then, before I came, one of my celestial spirits came to give me a bouquet of roses when I was driving."
"You sure are indeed...popular and everywhere you go." – Masaomi chuckles as the girl sadly nodded.
*knock...knock...knock*
"Come in!" – Masaomi said as they both turn towards the door.
Lucy is slurping up her noodles eyeing the door as it opens revealing a tall pale man with grey and messy hair and icy blue eyes wearing a black glass. A large white coat draping over him as he made his way over to them. Lucy couldn't help but gawk at the man who just enters the room with a blank gaze as he scans the room looking at Lucy longer than intended.
"Oh! I almost forgot you come here every day, Akito-Kun." – Masaomi smiles as Lucy gulps her bite still gawking at him.
"Did I interrupt?" – Akito said glancing at the goddess in front of him, stealing glances here and there as he pushes up his eyeglass.
'The second handsome man that I have met today...and Oh my gosh! His voice is also deep and husky at the same time...oh what has this world have in store for me?!' - Lucy sulks mentally to herself thinking about those men she met in her earlier days here at Earth.
"No, you did not, you can happily join us if you want?" – Masaomi said as he sat down opening his food and gesturing for Akito so sit down beside him and in front of Lucy.
"Lucy, this is one of the doctors and my colleague here, Akito Okumura." – he gestures to the man who slightly smiles and bows then went to the blonde.
"And this here is someone who is staying with my family for a while, Lucy Heartfillia."
"Please to meet you." – she smiles softly and bows at the man in front of her whose eyes widen to see how angelic she looks but managed to nod his head in response.
